What We Discuss In This Episode:
Dee shares her personal journey with hormone imbalances, infertility, and weight challenges, and how that led her to study functional medicine and helps other women with similar struggles.
Dee explains why she believes in using comprehensive lab testing, such as the Dutch hormone test and GI map, to get a full picture of a client’s health rather than relying on limited blood tests. She cautions against practitioners who make assumptions or recommendations based on symptoms alone without proper testing.
Dee emphasizes the importance of addressing the root causes of health issues, not just treating the symptoms. She discusses how factors like diet, stress, sleep, and gut health can significantly impact hormone balance, and how addressing these foundational areas can often resolve many problems without the need for direct hormone interventions.
We discuss the limitations of the conventional healthcare system, including doctors’ reluctance to order comprehensive lab testing and their tendency to treat symptoms rather than underlying causes. They highlight the need for a more holistic, functional approach to healthcare, especially when it comes to women’s hormonal health.
Lynne shares her own experience with perimenopause and the challenges of getting proper support from her doctor. Dee emphasizes the importance of listening to one’s own body and intuition, and working with a practitioner who can provide comprehensive testing and a personalized approach to addressing hormonal changes.
Dee and Lynne discuss the role of faith in their lives and businesses, and the importance of being able to give back to those in need, even when it means sacrificing some financial gain. They share examples of how they’ve been able to support clients and employees in need, and the blessings they’ve experienced as a result.
Key Takeaways:
- The Importance of Comprehensive Testing
- Addressing Root Causes, Not Just Symptoms
- Challenges with Conventional Healthcare
- Navigating Perimenopause and Menopause
- The Power of Faith and Giving Back
